I lost my Dad in 23. He was in a good health and he was my best friend. We spoke at least twice each day.

He was involved in a traffic accident that took his life.

This is what I will share

Pray for the strength to be strong for him. It does get a little easier, but there will always be things that you’ll see or hear that will remind you of him. Be thankful that you had a great Dad, someone to hunt and fish with, someone who was a mentor and a trusted friend.

There is a void that will never be completely filled.

Man, Christmas was his thing. He made sure the entire family was together and would take the grands to buy enough fireworks to stage a KISS concert.

One final thought. There will be moments where you will want more than anything to pick up the phone, call and ask his advice about something. Know this, the answers are already within you.

He put them there before he left.
